Hi all,

I am looking for a pair of closed back over-ear headphones for under 300€/$. I've had the Beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro for years and I'm actually quite happy with them, but now that I'm no longer sitting alone in my home office, I'd like something that shields better. I was thinking about the DT 770 Pro or the DT 700 Pro X, but have read very mixed opinions about them. It would be nice if the cables were interchangeable. Do you have any recommendations?

One of the main negative points I hear about the DT770s is the treble peak around 10kHz, but since you already use and like the DT990 Pros, this is unlikely to bother you. I personally think they sound great, and are built like a tank.
